Two patterns, made from one set of 12 beautiful mini skeins and one skein of plain base colour.

Both sock patterns are knitted top-down.

Spindler has a simple staggered cable stitch on leg and foot (with a plain stocking stitch sole), changing colour every eight rounds. Stitches are held for an afterthought heel, and the toe and heel are knitted in the main colour for contrast.
